Kynzee Anderson and Lane Fenske are accomplished pitchers who also held their own at the plate while leading their teams to LHSAA titles.

The duo headlines the Louisiana Sports Writers Association’s 2025 Class 2A all-state teams for baseball and softball.

Anderson, a junior, is a Georgia commitment who led top-seeded Calvary Baptist in a big way, tossing a no-hitter in a victory over D’Arbonne Woods in the Division III select softball final.

She finished 24-1 with 245 strikeouts in 145 innings pitched. Anderson also batted .466 with 14 home runs and 45 RBI.

Fenske, an LSU Eunice signee, was 6-3 with a 1.19 ERA and 94 strikeouts in 77 innings for a Catholic High of New Iberia squad that won the Division III select baseball title.

His season included a perfect game victory in the playoffs.  He hit .342 with 14 doubles, 22 RBI, 23 run scored and 10 stolen bases.

Ouachita Christian’s Rob Devinney and Brad Turney of Menard claimed Coach of the Year honors.

Turney led Menard to the Division IV select softball title, the school’s first title in a decade in his first season as head coach.

Devinney’s OCS squad was the Division IV runner-up to Vermilion Catholic. The Eagles had just two returning starters and sub-.500 record before beating three higher seeds in the post season.
